February's Verse a Day

Verse a Day Feb 1 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man; but God is faithful who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:13 2 And He shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light and thy judgment as the noonday.

I really like this song too. It also seems quite relevant with all the mentions of First Love recently. What do you think of it?

Spurgeon's Evening Devotional 26th January

“All they that heard it wondered at those things.” - Luke_2:18 We must not cease to wonder at the great marvels of our God. It would be very difficult to draw a line between holy wonder and real worship; for when the soul is overwhelmed with the majesty of God’s glory, though it may not express itself in song, or even utter its voice with bowed head in humble prayer, yet it silently adores. Our incarnate God is to be worshipped as “the Wonderful.” That God should consider his fallen creature, man, and instead of sweeping him away with the besom of destruction, should himself undertake to be man’s Redeemer, and to pay his ransom price, is, indeed marvellous! But to each believer redemption is most marvellous as he views it in relation to himself. It is a miracle of grace indeed, that Jesus should forsake the thrones and royalties above, to suffer ignominiously below for you. Let your soul lose itself in wonder, for wonder is in this way a very practical emotion. Holy wonder will lead yo...

Remember His Faithfulness and Behave Like Christ is Coming Again! (Because He is!!)

"And canst thou not do this? Are there no mercies which thou hast experienced? What though thou art gloomy now, canst thou forget that blessed hour when Jesus met thee, and said, "Come unto me"? Canst thou not remember that rapturous moment when he snapped thy fetters, dashed thy chains to the earth, and said, "I came to break thy bonds and set thee free"? Or if the love of thine espousals be forgotten, there must surely be some precious milestone along the road of life not quite grown over with moss, on which thou canst read a happy memorial of his mercy towards thee? What, didst thou never have a sickness like that which thou art suffering now, and did he not restore thee? Wert thou never poor before, and did he not supply thy wants? Wast thou never in straits before, and did he not deliver thee? Arise, go to the river of thine experience, and pull up a few bulrushes, and plait them into an ark, wherein thine infant- faith may float safely on th...

Another poem :)

Looking around for some more nice poems and came across this site. More like Jesus would I be, Let my Saviour dwell in me; Fill my soul with peace and love, Make me gentle as a dove. More like Jesus while I go, Pilgrim in this world below; Poor in spirit would I be; Let my Saviour dwell in me. http://www.wholesomewords.org/poetry/crosby2.html Enjoy!!

Here's a poem by William Quayle

I am going on my journey glad with joy from dawn to dark, With the spirit of the morning and the carol of the lark, I am drinking of those fountains whence the healing waters flow, And I hear Heaven's sweetest music as along the way I go. And my heart is full of laughter, like the singing of a psalm; And my sky behind bends blue above me, with its winds of evening balm, And I know not any trouble; for I have the Tempest's King to change my winter's fury to the gladness of the Spring. William A. Quayle Enjoy!

Little Lamb by Ishmael

Ishmael's song: Little Lamb I think they're really great words and so encouraging! I was brought up listening to Ishmael and Psalty etc. and I still love most if not all of their music. "He will keep you, love you, hold you But don't you stray from His embrace Greater Love has not been known The Shepherd died in the lamb's place."
